Very nice pics I like white. I see what you mean about the cut off line on the HID's. Fix that and you should be a happy camper. How much did you pay for the kit?

WTF? the Prolumens don't come with a built-in glare shield? that little strip of material on the bulb doesn't do jack for the glare.

I was thinking of purchasing the prolumens but they're worthless if they don't come with glare shields. Do you know if the XTEC ones have glare shields?

Cause if those HID kits don't have glare shields, then it'd probably be better to source out ballasts/bulbs/casper shields and just use OEM stuff. It's possibly cheaper if you can make the wiring harness yourself.

Forecast for some rain for awhile, overcast too...

It's pretty cool here today, not quite what I expected for May, but oh well...

It's been overcast and windy here since friday, but only rained for about 10 minutes. Supposed to have thunderstorms today, but looking outside it is nice and sunny.

I think you should stop fooling around and get yer new car to Edmonton so I can drool all over it.

Then we can go for some Chinese food.

Or, we could do a Saturday BBQ at Hawrelak Park. Mmmmmmmmmmmm... Grilled foods... Yum!

That would be weather permitting, of course.

Weather permitting is the key....

There are currently flood warnings for Southern Alberta. We even got a "no water use" advisory for Lethbridge b/c of the murkyness of the river...

High River is living up to it's name. I guess the town is being evacuated, as is Bragg Creek. So far, it's been raining since Wednesday...

I phoned my cousin in Edmonton and he told me it's like +22C up there... WTF???

21 warnings this year alone... sheesh... gotta love the wind and rain sometimes I guess.
